Heights higher over Greenland pushing the low on a more southerly trajectory again. Correction south again??? 

it looked that way then as blue said it engages with the upper trough and swings back - 12z is poor for the south-not sure about the midlands could even be dodgy for the midlands..

12z is an upgrade for the midlands comparing it with the 06z. Big improvements in particular for North Wales and the North West midlands.

Much  better 12z!!definately gone further south!!if it keeps doin that each time eventually the m4 corridor will be involved aswell!

Hopefully if it goes further south the majority will stay in the cold air and see further chances for snow down the line

GFS good for here in Yorkshire, models seem to be giving the system a pivot as it passes over so some areas could be well favoured. For the South East (and I only just moved from there so I know your pain), it looks like Monday might be the time you get in on the act, temperatures being just too high before that.

Overall, not a particularly snowy run compared to some others, though.

Gfs provides an alternative solution so best to wait for the ukmo, gem and ecm

of course, even if they all disagree we will be left thinking ‘wonder if gfs is into something ‘ ...........

UKMO at t96 doesn't fully agree with GFS amazing how close to the wire this is going

No UKMO 48 but the 12z sees a big adjustment south - Exit point somewhere around sussex although hard to tell

UKMO 12z almost a match for the GFS 6z.

Whats your take on it blue- the 96 hr chart looks either very very snowy or very very rainy!!

I reckon pretty rainy although further north could be white stuff higher up off the easterly flow 

i doubt the detail of that system is well modelled as yet - it didn’t really exist 36 hours ago on the nwp!

Meto state they are using Ensembles from ECM and UKMO, latest graphics on BBC bring the snow further south into Southeast Wales, so much to play for for everyone in Wales, SW England , Southern England , Midlands and possibly South east too

So although in interested in the trends set by GFS i am more looking for changes in trend from ECM

We also have interesting synoptics later next week showing up

I have to say, that I think this is the form horse. It depends how quickly and deeply the arctic air entrenches. But this doesn't look to me like an east-west trajectory at all. I wouldn't be all that surprised if only Devon and Cornwall see the precipitation to be frank. It has happened before. Infamously, if I recall, on 5th-6th February 2009 when right up to the last minute the MetO and all models were predicting the incoming low to sweep across southern Britain and the Midlands. In fact, only Devon and Cornwall copped it:

I was fortunate enough to be there at the time and it was magnifique :) Here you go with the charts. Look at all familiar?

Now you really are teasing WIB, to date that's the best snow event I've had in the 20 odd years of living in the soggy SW. Bit of a difference though, in 2009 it was already cold and had been for quite a few days.

Could be an interesting wrap-in of cold air around that low on the UKMO +96. 

Curious how GFS saw that feature on the 06z but has lost it again on the 12z.

 

Further out in time, 12z GFS looks a little better aligned with the Canadian trough for throwing the mid-Atlantic ridge to Scandinavia with decent strength;

7 days range, so far enough away for details to be of little significance, but with the broader-scale corrections being of some note.

It just takes a little longer for the ridge to go up, but I would say that the low is better tilted in this run so the heights should go higher up
